Family Dentistry and Prevention

Children

As a family orientated practice we feel that it is important that children are seen at a young age so that they feel comfortable in a new environment. Our aim is to prevent dental disease rather than treat at a later date so it is essential to have regular examinations and provide education about good oral health. Also fluoride applications and fissure sealants (tooth coloured varnish) can be applied to the biting surfaces of children’s teeth to help prevent decay.
